		<description><![CDATA[It was with great sadness that we learned of Robert Holdstock&#8217;s passing on the morning of 29 November.
Rob made a valuable, generous and genuinely unique contribution to National Videogame Archive&#8217;s events at GameCity this year, where he joined Ian Bell, David Braben, Mark Bolitho and others to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Elite. Reading excerpts [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The NVA very much enjoyed its time at GameCity this year and we’ve come back with some wonderful new donations for the collection. Masaya Matsuura, creator of Parappa the Rapper, Vib Ribbon and Major Minor’s Majestic Marching Band among others, delivered two fantastic presentations. In his ‘Unforgettable’ BAFTA keynote speech, Matsuura-san discussed his thoughts on [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For those of us old enough to remember, it is exciting and not a little bit sobering, to think that the space-opera, shoot-em-up, asteroid-mining, bounty-hunting, piratical, trading game Elite is now over a quarter of a century old.
If you&#8217;re now overcome by the warmth of a hazy, nostalgic glow, you will need no reminding that [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ian Bogost has an interesting piece on emulating the Atari VCS that highlights another of the issues surrounding emulators as archival tools. However, here the concern is not about the integrity of the emulation or the hacks, tricks and tweaks that potential undermine the authenticity of the running of the original code. Rather, Bogost draws [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Simon Parkin has a review of the fascinating Retro Game Challenge over at Eurogamer.
Retro Game Challenge is an intriguing title that, in part at least, trades in 8-bit nostalgia and retro chic as it presents a raft of 1980s-style NES mini-games. The game is actually based on a Japanese TV series of the same name [...]]]></description>
